Today I was intentionally stupid

source

some guy found me on the chat with the proposal, send me 3 $ and you get 3 votes

the account was crazy powerful, but it was shady

after typical hustling, who will send the first

I accepted

source

Why!

Well, it's 3 $, so, if you upvote this content - I could end up even positive

even it's a scam

Source

The address is:

@bittrex

and the memo, well, who cares

Simply avoid such proposals

Now you can upvote me to return me 3 $ and earn some for you as the curators :)

Hey alexs1320, @bittrex is an actual honest account for the trading market https://bittrex.com/

I know because I trade on bittrex all the time and when trading takes place you send them an amount with a specific memo and when you send it they "deposit" tokens into your account that are worth 1 SBD in order to trade for other tokens on the site that can be used to cash out other crypto. For instance, 1 SBD will get you 0.00066077 BTC and 3 will get you 0.00198231 BTC right now. So what we need as a community is the steemit chat username (not the transfer account)

Just going to put this here for later for the memo field. It is important!

I am not certain if there is anything you can do to retrieve your 3 SBD but here are the TOS for Bittrex https://bittrex.com/Home/Terms
